Dear Hubs,
Happy Mother's Day
*Sincere apologies to Seb who wasn't born yet.
I am sure you thought the load would get lighter as we all aged,
but really we more than quadrupled your work.
You went from worrying about the three of us,
to thinking about the three of us, our three spouses, and our nine children.
If anyone is equal to the task, it is you.
You can resolve any challenge, embrace any topic and become expert or simply distract from a "despondent" kiddo.
You teach, console, coach, encourage, mentor, love, and cherish.
You do this in person, on the phone, or via FaceTime.
You show us integrity, dedication, the importance of family,
your love of travel, the value of seeing the world, hard work,
and how to take a minute for a good back rub, and a round of skinarmarinkidink.
You cheer on your grandkids at tennis, soccer, scootering, swimming and rugby.
You congratulate them for baptisms and first communions, even though it really isn't your thing.
You helicopter parent when we need it.....still.
You let us soar and watch with pride.
We are all SO so lucky that you are our Hubbard.
Happy Mother's Day.
We all love you with gusto and zest.
xoxo
